In the 1970s and 1980s I worked on London buses and knew many marvellous men and women working there from a West Indian background. Many took an active part in local community services and politics.

The environment in politics in Camden is hostile to anyone from a working-class background playing a significant part in affairs. If I could find a working-class person from a West Indian background taking part in local politics to any extent I would be able to ask if they found the atmosphere hostile in the local parties.

I ask again, could the council leader explain who exactly selected the 2017 Local Campaign Forum which went on to impose the council candidates who were then elected in 2018?
